Lord Jesus - You bring us hope.
Christ Jesus - You bring to fulfillment God’s covenant.
Lord Jesus - You call us to holiness.
With faith and hope, we present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For the Church: that we may recognize our dependence upon God in all things, we pray to the Lord.
2. For deeper understanding: that the Holy Spirit will increase our awareness of the beauty and power of the New Life we have in Christ, we pray to the Lord.
3. For conversion of hearts: that we may lay aside lies, greed, and selfishness, and live as children of God, we pray to the Lord.
4. For a spirit of gratitude: that we may appreciate all the gifts that God has given us and become rich through words of faith, attitudes of hope, and deeds of love, we pray to the Lord.
5. For a greater sense of the common good: that we may recognize that God’s gifts are for the benefit of the whole human family and not allow them to become idols that control us, we pray to the Lord.
6. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts, we pray to the Lord.
With great love, we present these prayers through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
